Let’s kneel and pray over vaccines so nothing bad happens – Dr. Nsiah Asare
Presidential advisor on Health Dr. Anthony Nsiah
Asarehas given the strongest assurances to
doubting Thomases of the vaccines for COVID-19.

According to him, the vaccines are not meant to
kill the but rather help protect them from the
deadly virus that has taken several lives.

There are several theories on social media and
even on traditional media with regards to the
efficacy of the vaccines Ghana received.

Some Ghanaians are of the view that they are going
to be used as Guinnea pigs for experimentation and
have vowed not to take their jabs of the vaccine.

But speaking on Accra-based Okay FM in an
interview, Dr. Anthony Nsiah Asare assured
Ghanaians that they should forget the conspiracy
theories bandied around on social and traditional
media.



He used the opportunity to call on Ghanaians whose
faith bar them from taking such vaccines to think
of their health and that of people around them
saying “do not let your pastor deceive you that
the vaccines are not good for you; put your own
health and that of other people first. We have
decided to speak with all men of god to become
ambassadors for the vaccines”.

The Presidential advisor on Health added that
“It is God who gave the developers the wisdom to
manufacture the vaccines; both the Bible and Quran
teach that if we pray over anything before
consuming them, they cannot harm us. We will pray
over the vaccines so that they become even more
effective; through the prayers, Ghana could become
one of the first country to defeat COVID-19
through the vaccination”.



Meanwhile, the Information Minister-designate has
announced that the vaccines will be deployed to
the various health facilities on March 2 in order
to start the vaccination process across the
country.
